Travel Blogs from Le Havre

... VERY narrow roads, I find a park and we walk back. Lunch first, yummy as always and then we go in search of the museum where the Bayeux Tapestry is kept. We get sidetracked by the Cathedral and spent almost an hour in there reading about Saint Therese of Lisieux - very interesting.
